men are attracted to beauty because it indicates health and youth—no point mating with a sickly woman who won’t be around to raise the children.

I study her,” Patch said. “I figure out what she’s thinking and feeling. She’s not going to come right out and tell me, which is why I have to pay attention. Does she turn her body toward mine?
